Are these coming with tires? If the tires are the correct size the wheels should fit.

Limerock has donated the WHOLE DAY to us. The only thing they ask is that you purchase food/drinks from them just to break even for the day. Last time I checked, there was over 700+ cars going to this. I have a meeting this Thursday with 36 Creative to finish the branding for this event. I will be sure to keep my Mini Cult peeps up to date.
DAMN this sounds like it's going to be a great time.

It appears that way. Drift event put on possibly by Ryan Tuerck and a couple of the other hoonigans, also bike stunt show. Meeting time is at 5 am, leaving at 6 am promptly. Police escort from the Mass border, including free tolls on the pike, all the way into CT. I checked the numbers last night, and just based on Facebook attendees, we are looking at 775+ people going. Looking to break 1,000! Suggested donation is $10/car. All proceeds go to the Families.
SO STOKED!

I looked at mine and its seeping.
Mine is weeping as well. Phone call made to Jeff @ MOB.

230 to 250 roughly. The gasket is $38 bucks and the rest is labor.

That's what I am thinking, but would it be worth picking springs up for less than $60?

I second this one as well.
JCW went into MOB today. Valve Cover gasket, oil change, and a couple other small things. Gave me a Clubby S......I want my manual back.

MOB replaced Valve Cover and Gasket. Guess the Cover was cracked right at the PCV port.
Any issues you have seen from this?

Is there somewhere I would have to register to be a part of this or just show up at the Bud plant on the day of the cruise?
